Big thanks for the reviews. I'm glad that you are enjoying this story. Now I hope to end this story at about 20 to 25 chapters. So it might be longer between each update but i'll try to be quick. Wish me luck. Quick note the hostages were the janitors of the mall.
A Few Weeks Later
Runo's (P.O.V.)
Alice and Michael (Alice's grandfather) went out to lunch, and Julie went shopping. So I'm currently alone. Now I can work on my music and lyrics. I walk over to my desk. Grab my recorder, music lyrics, and podcast microphone. Once I have it all set up. I sit down in my chair. Then turn on the background music and recorder. I start to sing my song (pretend Runo's voice is like a nightcored girl voice when singing, this is the nightcore version of N-Trance's destiny). "Do you believe? / In destiny? / I close my eyes and dream that you are closer to me / so follow me / and you will see / together we can touch the sky / were flying so high high higher up / I feel alive tonight / until the morning sky / the love inside my heart will last forever / and in my dreams i'll never let you go / (destiny) / I know you need to be with me / when something feel so good its only fantasy / as time goes by / I wonder why / will you be here with me someday I'm fading away / I feel alive tonight / until the morning sky / the love inside my heart will last forever / and in my dreams i'll never let you go / (do you believe in destiny?) / I feel alive tonight / until the morning sky / the love inside my heart will last forever / and in my dreams i'll never let you go / I feel alive tonight / until the morning sky / the love inside my heart will last forever / and in my dreams i'll never let you go." I finished and heard clapping behind me. I turn around to see Alice, Julie, and Michael standing there smiling. My face went as red as Alice's hair. "How long have you standing there" I ask surprised/embarrassed. "Since the middle of your song" Julie replied. "It was beautiful" Alice says. "I agree you have a beautiful singing voice" Michael adds.
Alice's (P.O.V.)
Grandfather and I are eating lunch. Julie was shopping for who knows what. Runo stayed home. I'm a little worried about leaving her home alone. It's a good thing were finished eating. Now I can go check on her and make sure she's alright. I call Julie "hey did you find what you needed" I ask. "Yep, I've got the ingredients for tonight's dinner" she replies. "Okay meet us at the exit. "Ok" then she hangs up.
Julie's (P.O.V.)
I walk into the grocery store in the mall. I'm looking for ingredients to a new recipe, which were going to try tonight. I stroll down the shelves of the store. The list of items I'm looking for include bacon, cheese, chicken, and ramen. (I don't know if that's an actual ramen recipe in Japan but whatever.) My phone starts ringing. I look at the caller I.D. It's Alice. "Hey did you find what you needed" she asks. "Yep, I've got the ingredients for tonight's dinner" I tell her. "Okay meet us at the exit." "Ok" I reply. We then head home. When we arrive we hear someone singing. I literally ran up the stairs and into Runo's room to see her singing. "I know you need to be with me / when something feel so good its only fantasy / as time goes by / I wonder why / will you be here with me someday I'm fading away / I feel alive tonight / until the morning sky / the love inside my heart will last forever / and in my dreams i'll never let you go / (do you believe in destiny?) / I feel alive tonight / until the morning sky / the love inside my heart will last forever / and in my dreams i'll never let you go / I feel alive tonight / until the morning sky / the love inside my heart will last forever / and in my dreams i'll never let you go." When she finished we all clapped. She turns around surprised. Her face turns red and she asks "How long have you standing there." I reply with "since the middle of your song." "It was beautiful" Alice says. "I agree you have a beautiful singing voice" Michael states. Runo blushes a deep red.
